This Baahubali star looked stunning in her younger days, did bold scenes with Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan; Her real name is...
One of the most grossing Indian movies is Baahubali. It created history at the box office. Baahubali: The Beginning grossed Rs 650 crore worldwide and Baahubali 2: The Conclusion earned Rs 1,810.60 crore worldwide, briefly becoming the highest-grossing Indian film. The reason behind this immense success is not just the strong story and direction, but also the brilliant acting of each character, be it Prabhas or Rajmata Sivagami Devi. Now, 10 years have passed since the release of this film. The actress who played the role of Sivagami Devi in the film released in 2015 may have been seen in an aged character, but she has previously romanced top Bollywood actresses on the big screen. What is Rajmata Sivagami Devi's real name?
Rajmata Sivagami Devi's role impressed the audience. She played a righteous woman who desires a real king on the Mahismathi throne. She loves Bahubali and treats him as her son. She was the foster mother of Baahubali, and recognised his leadership qualities and announced him as the next king. Her real name is Ramya Krishnan.
In 1993, Ramya made her debut in Bollywood films with Yash Chopra's Parampara. She acted in a few more Hindi films, including Subhash Ghai's Khalnayak, Mahesh Bhatt's Chaahat, David Dhawan's Banarasi Babu, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan along with Amitabh Bachchan and Govinda and Shapath with Mithun Chakraborty.

Renuka Shahane "Heartbroken" Over Reports Of Chakda Xpress Being Shelved, Says Anushka Was "Really Good" as Jhulan
Days after reports of Anushka Sharma-starrer Chakda Xpress being shelved started doing the rounds on social media, actor Renuka Shahane has responded to the development with shock. The actor-filmmaker, who played a retired sportsperson in Chakda Xpress, told NDTV, "I didn't know. I am very shocked". View this post on Instagram A post shared by AnushkaSharma1588 (@anushkasharma) Directed by Prosit Roy, Chakda Xpress is inspired by the life of former Indian women's cricket captain Jhulan Goswami. It was a Netflix movie and produced by Anushka Sharma's brother Karnesh Ssharma's Clean Slate Filmz. Renuka Shahane, who shot for the film in 2022, said she was sad about the reported development, calling Chakda Xpress a "beautiful, impactful" film made with "a very big heart". "I am totally heartbroken. Basically, because I think everyone has put in so much effort. Anushka has also worked on herself so much for it. And whatever scenes I did were so powerful and so impactful, especially for women in sports. "Jhulan Goswami is iconic and coming from a very poor house and making it big and yet the kind of discrepancy that still exists between men's cricket and women's cricket and all other sports, I would say. Chakda Xpress had that core quality of sportsmanship," Renuka Shahane told NDTV. View this post on Instagram A post shared by AnushkaSharma1588 (@anushkasharma) Speaking about Anushka Sharma's performance as legendary Indian cricketer Jhulan Goswami, Renuka Shahane said, "She's really done such a good job of creating that character, and it's so difficult to do because when icons are there in front of us and you have to perform as them it is even more challenging." She revealed that most of her scenes were with Anushka Sharma, and while dubbing, she got to watch parts of the film. "It's shot well, it's really well made. I was so looking forward to it. I wish there was some way such a beautiful film could be salvaged." The actor also praised Prosit Roy, calling him "such a fine director", and said she was proud of being part of a project that spotlighted the untold struggles and passion of women athletes. "You can never take the field off the sportsperson," she said of her own role and its emotional depth. Shot in 2022 and reportedly completed in 2023, Chakda Xpress was meant to be a powerful tribute to the life and career of Jhulan Goswami. But with the film now shelved indefinitely, those who worked on it like Renuka and Dibyendu Bhattacharya are left only with the memories of what could have been. The makers of the film are yet to officially confirm the status of the film.
